May 3 – Parshuram Jayanti
In the ancient Indian texts, there are descriptions of some such great men who have happened in ancient times, who are still considered alive i.e. immortal. The tales of eight such famous immortal great men are available everywhere in Indian mythology, cosmic tales, poems and songs. These immortal great men include Ashwatthama, King Bali, Maharishi Vedavyasa, Hanuman, Vibhishana, Kripacharya, Lord Parashurama and Rishi Markandeya, who are also called Ashtachiranjeevi because they are immortal. Parashurama, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu included in the Ashtchiranjeevi, was alive in Kritayuga, that is, in Satyuga, Tretayuga and then in Dwapar, and it is believed that even in this Kaliyuga, Parashurama is alive, he is immortal, and in the present time also absorbed in penance. Huh. Due to the belief that Parashurama, the sixth incarnation of Vishnu in the Dashavatars, is alive even in the present, he has been included in the Ashta Chiranjeevi.
According to legends related to Parashuram in mythological texts like Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavata Purana and Kalki Purana etc., to free this earth from Kshatriyas twenty one times, after Sita Swayambar, a heated dispute with Lakshmana, brother of Shri Ram, Amba, daughters of Kashiraj in Mahabharata period, All are Lord Parashurama who is ready to fight with Bhishma to get Ambika to marry Bhishma to Ambika, who refuses to marry Vichitravirya after getting Ambalika kidnapped by Bhishma Pitamah. From the study of mythological texts, it is said that Parashuram became the witness of various era-changing events for many ages and himself became the cause or factor. Parashurama, who fought the Haihayas, took place in Satyuga, who defeated the Haihayas twenty one times one after the other. According to the legend, Parashurama, following the orders of his father Janmadagni, who was angry at some point, killed his mother Renuka with his parashu i.e. Farsa. When the happy father asked him to ask for a boon, he got the mother back by asking for the resurrection of his mother. The people of the Bhargava tradition lived on the banks of the Narmada and were the patriarchs of the Haihaya dynasty of Anarta (Gujarat).
Later, due to estrangement with Haihayans, instead of quarreling with their despised kings, the people of Bhargava clan settled in Kanyakubja. But with Jamadagni, his son Parashurama could not bear the humiliation at the hands of Haihayas and after attaining supreme knowledge on weaponry, he formed a federation of many kings and got entangled with the Haihayas and led a Mahasamar in which Haihaya was repeated from place to place. were defeated. Due to the war fought with the Haihayas with a farsa and many other weapons, the name Parshuram has become associated with Farse. The legend spread about Parashurama, who was defeated at twenty one places in a long battle with the Haihayas, that he annihilated the Kshatriyas on this earth twenty one times. In connection with the eradication of twenty one times, the stories of large-scale destruction of dynasties spread over a large area at the hands of Parashurama are found in the Puranas. After this incident, instead of Bhargava, a new clan named Parashurama started, and every descendant, who became proficient in warfare, preferred to call himself Parashurama. Therefore those who fought with Rama also became Parashurama, and those who fought with Bhishma also became Parashurama.
Parashuram is the first scholar of Indian history, that is, a Brahmin character, who, in order to punish a king, had united the kings and fought against him. Prior to this, rishis or scholars had come forward on their own level to punish the wickedness, carelessness of kings like Pururava, Ven, Nahusha, Shashad. It is also an astonishing fact that millennium years ago, at the end of the Satyuga i.e. Krita Yuga, Parashurama formed a federation of the kings of the north and east and provided a victorious leadership to a great battle against the Haihaya kings of present-day Gujarat. This is the reason that under the leadership of Parashuram, Parashurama, the winner of this great battle against the Haihayas at the end of Satya Yuga, became famous. And the situation became such that like the lineage tradition of Vasisthas and Vishwamitras, the Bhargava dynasty to which Parashurama belonged became a complete lineage, all of whose great men were naturally called Bhargava or Parashurama. And at present, like Vasisthas and Vishwamitras, all the Bhargavas, that is, all the Parashuramas have also become one.
After this there was a Parashurama in Tretayuga, who had a dispute with Sri Rama, who broke the Shiva bow, and then his brother Lakshmana, challenged his valor and returned after getting his mother-in-law from Rama. After that there was a Parashurama in Dwapar, who fought with Bhishma to get Amba married to Bhishma Pitamah. Thus it is clear that Parashurama lived for three yugas namely Satyuga, Tretayuga and Dwapar Yuga. According to the mythological belief, he is still alive and is absorbed in penance somewhere even in the present time. And in future he will become the mentor of that tenth incarnation of Vishnu in Kalki avatar, Kalki will teach him about war. And it is Parashurama who will instruct Kalki to do penance to Lord Shiva and get his divine weapon. This is the reason why Parashurama has also been included in the Saptachiranjeevi or Ashtachiranjeevi. Scholars say that all Parashurama present in different eras cannot be one person, but it is many people born in different eras of the lineage of Parashurama’s descendants.
According to mythological belief, Lord Parashurama, the sixth incarnation of Vishnu, was born on Vaishakh Shukla Tritiya from the womb of Renuka as a boon of Lord Indra, who was pleased with the Putreshti Yagya performed by Bhrigushreshtha Maharishi Jamadagni. After the naming ceremony performed by his grandfather Bhrigu, he was called Ram, being Jamadagni’s son, Jamadagnya and because of holding the Parashu given to him by Shiva, he was called Parashurama. All his descendants are called Bhargava because of the name of the original man of the clan in which Parashuram was born, because of his name being Bhrigu. Parshuram’s early education was initiated in the ashram of Maharishi Vishwamitra and Richik. He received the divine Vaishnava bow named Sarang from Maharishi Richeek and the indestructible Vaishnava mantra duly from Brahmarishi Kashyap. Thereafter, after receiving education in the ashram of Lord Shankar situated on the Girishring of Kailash, he received a parashu named Vidyudabhi, a special Divyastra.
From Shiva, he also received Trilokya Vijay Kavach, Stavraj Stotra and Mantra Kalpataru of Shri Krishna. Pleased with his hard penance performed in Chakratirtha, Lord Vishnu granted him the boon of being a Rama in Treta, after Tejoharan, to remain on the land of penance till the end of his life. Parashurama, the great guru of weaponry, had imparted weapons to Bhishma, Drona and Karna. He also wrote the eleven verses of Shiva Panchatvarishnama Stotra. Parashurama, a lifelong advocate of a wife’s vow for men, had also conducted the Viraat Nari Jagriti Abhiyan with the help of Atri’s wife Anasuya, Agastya’s wife Lopamudra and his beloved disciple Akritavan.
In the Puranas, in his still-remaining works, it has also been told to provide weaponry to Vishnu after taking his Gurupad as Kalki Avatar. Barring a few exceptions like Bhishma and Karna, he gave military education only to scholars, ie Brahmins. His well-known disciples were Bhishma Pitamah, the guru of Kaurava-Pandavas and the father of Ashwatthama was Dronacharya and Karna. Parasurama, the best scholar of weaponry, is the founder Acharya and Adi Guru of Vadakkan Kalari, the northern style of the martial art Kalaripayattu of Kerala. Vadakkan Kalari is the dominant style of weaponry. Parashurama was a complete follower of Vedic culture and his aim was to keep this creature alive with its natural beauty. It is believed that most of the villages of India were settled by Parashurama after Prithu Maharaj’s demarcation of village, block etc.
